BPR Interview with Patricia Michaels

By Admin 4:48 PM Finalist, Patricia Michaels, Season 11

Project Runway Season 11 finalist, Patricia Michaels, talks about her experience on the show.

A highlight:

BPR: I have a question about the headpiece. What is it called, exactly?

PM: We call it a circular "roach." It's kind of awkward, but the native American man wears this when he dances. I wanted to have fun with it and transition it to a woman's piece. It is horsehair. I was also inspired by Carlo Scarpa and Paolo Soleri. So these are very organic shapes and forms.

I looked at canopy and gardening illustrations and originally I wanted to sculpt the horsehair into shapes. But when I saw how it looked I decided not to trim it.

BPR: Well that was obviously a good decision. They were very memorable.

PM: I would have loved to do more, but I had to stay within my budget. I have many more ideas for these.

BPR Interview with Stanley Hudson

By Admin 2:12 PM Finalist, Season 11, Stanley Hudson

Project Runway Season 11 finalist, Stanley Hudson, talks about his experience on the show.

A highlight:

BPR: Did you watch last night's episode?

SH: Yes.

BPR: Was there anything that we didn't see, that you wish we had?

SH: Well, at the end of the day, I take responsibility for my collection and I did procrastinate. You didn't see any interaction between Richard and I because he just didn't help. He wasn't feeling well and he was asleep.

I wish they showed a little more of how Michelle helped me, Daniel helped me, Sam helped me... I really wish you had seen more of my relationship with Michelle, we have become very close friends. I just went up to visit her. I wish they had shown more of our relationship. She has the biggest heart, she is all girl. She is really great.
